This is a state by state look at how immigration to America has changed over time.
In 1850, the vast majority of newcomers were from Ireland and Germany.
In the1860’s the labor shortages during the Civil War created strong demand for immigrant labor, nearly doubling the foreign born population in a decade.
1870 saw Mexico become the top country of origin in much of the Southwest, while British immigrants preferred the rocky mountain territories.
The 1880 census showed that the Chinese were coming in large numbers. Many took dangerous jobs in the mines or on railroad building crews. For the next century immigrants from Canada crossing the southern border would be the largest group settling in many of the northernmost American states.
In 1882 the Chinese Exclusion Act blocked the arrival of large numbers of Asian immigrants for much of the next century. Unfortunately the overall microdata for the 1890 census were destroyed in a 1921 fire at the Department of Commerce.
So fast-forward to 1900, the turn of the century, when the territorial boundaries of the continental United States were settled. For the first timeNorwegians, Swedes, and Italians were the largest groups coming to South Dakota, Minnesota and Louisiana, respectively.
1910 shows us how quickly things can change, with large numbers of Russians and Italians arriving, the only state where Ireland was the top country of origin was tiny Delaware.
With the American population exceeded 100 million in the 1920 census, there were equal numbers of German, Italian, and Russian born immigrants. Many had fled Europe to escape the horrors of World War I.
By 1930 the industrial revolution was in full swing, and the country was growing rapidly from within, so the percent of foreign born fell. And, for the first time since 1850, Mexico was the dominant country of origin for new arrivals to California.
By 1940, the quotas and other congressional measures passed in the previous decade to restrict immigration sharply cut the foreign born population to below 9%.
1950 saw the effects of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act, as Chinese immigrants were finally welcomed back. Greeks were the largest group arriving in South Carolina.
When Alaska and Hawaii became states in 1959, the year before the 1960 census, Canadians simply crossed the border to immigrate to The Last Frontier, but Filipinos crossed an entire ocean to become The Aloha State’s largest group.
By 1970, the percentage of foreign born reached an all-time low. And with immigrants arriving from a wider range of countries, Italy was the only nation that had sent more than a million people.
In 1980, after Congress began granting more visas to people from the Western Hemisphere, the number of states where Mexico was the top country of origin doubled in a decade, becoming the dominant foreign born population in the entire country.
And in 1990 America began to look like the diverse country we live in today. Mexico was tops in 18 states, Dominicans were the largest group coming to New York, and South Korea and Southeast Asian nations were the leading countries of origin in seven states.
In the year 2000 census the number of Mexican-born immigrants surpassed nine million. It’s also notable that India was the top country of origin in three states.
And the 2010 census reveals exactly why America is quickly becoming so diverse: only five states - all of them bordering Canada - received the most immigrants from a majority white country.

The Meo people are an ethnic minority, who mainly used to live in northern and central areas of China. To avoid suppression, they have been forced to move further south, to for example Laos. In times of war, they have been required to take part, but their biggest wish is to live peacefully and stay outside of any conflicts.
The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975. As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions.
The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and PanareIndians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes and the Meo of China.

The New York Times An Ethnic War Is Rekindled in Myanmar-Burma
Myanmar, formerly Burma, is riddled with ethnic civil conflicts, but this is the largest, with the greatest at stake. Right on the Chinese border, Kachin State is rich in jade, gold and timber, and has rivers that are being exploited by Chinese hydropower projects. Part of the state has long been controlled by the Kachin Independence Army and its political wing, which levies taxes on all commerce. The army allowed a reporter and a photographer recently to visit an area rarely seen by Western reporters for one week.

Ethnic cleansing lacks a legal definition by the United Nations, so ethnic cleansing is technically not considered a crime under international law; As opposed to genocide which does have an international meaning.

The first time the term was used on the world stage, was during the conflict in the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. The United NationsCommission of Experts was tasked with investigating if violations of international humanitarian law was committed there.
As the world continues to see acts of ethnic cleansing in places like Myanmar, Bangladesh for example, unfold over and over, is it time the international community come together to legally define it and make it an international crime?

What is ETHNIC GROUP? What does ETHNIC GROUP mean? ETHNIC GROUP meaning - ETHNIC GROUP pronunciation - ETHNIC GROUP definition - ETHNIC GROUP explanation - How to pronounce ETHNIC GROUP?
Source: Wikipedia.org article, adapted under https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ license.
An ethnic group or ethnicity is a category of people who identify with each other based on common language, ancestral, social, cultural, or national experiences. Unlike most other social groups, ethnicity is primarily an inherited status. Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language or dialect, symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art, and physical appearance.
Ethnic groups, derived from the same historical founder population, often continue to speak related languages and share a similar gene pool. By way of language shift, acculturation, adoption and religious conversion, it is possible for some individuals or groups to leave one ethnic group and become part of another (except for ethnic groups emphasizing racial purity as a key membership criterion).
Ethnicity is often used synonymously with ambiguous terms such as nation or people. In English, it can also have the connotation of something exotic (cf. "White ethnic", "ethnic restaurant", etc.).
Depending on which source of group identity is emphasized to define membership, the following types of (often mutually overlapping) groups can be identified:
Ethno-linguistic, emphasizing shared language, dialect or script — example: Basques
Ethno-national, emphasizing a shared polity or sense of national identity — example: Soviet people
Ethno-racial, emphasizing shared physical appearance based on genetic origins — example: Afro-Brazilians
Ethno-regional, emphasizing a distinct local sense of belonging stemming from relative geographic isolation — example: SouthIslandersEthno-religious, emphasizing shared affiliation with a particular religion, denomination or sect — example: Sikhs
In many cases – for instance, the sense of Jewish peoplehood – more than one aspect determines membership.
The largest ethnic groups in modern times comprise hundreds of millions of individuals (Han Chinese being the largest), while the smallest are limited to a few dozen individuals (numerous indigenous peoples worldwide). Larger ethnic groups may be subdivided into smaller sub-groups known variously as tribes or clans, which over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group. Conversely, formerly separate ethnicities can merge to form a pan-ethnicity, and may eventually merge into one single ethnicity. Whether through division or amalgamation, the formation of a separate ethnic identity is referred to as ethnogenesis.

KARGIL:
People of Kargil celebrated Mamani the seasonal Ethnic food festival on 22nd and 23rd January at Kargil. The traditional food festival of Purig, is observed to celebrate the end of winter and starting the new season.
During the occasion, people of Kargil prepares traditional dishes like Thukpa, Popot (GrainSoup), Hrtsrap Khur (YeastBread), Markhur, Azoq (Skinn & Kabchey) (Puri), Poli (Pane Cakes of BuckWheat), Curd , Suggoo (Kash or Pachae) etc. With all the dishes they gathers at a specific place (Changrah).
According to the oral history, there was a tradition of a Small Mamani Called (Maqsoomi Mamani) which was celebrated on the same day at the dawn, by lighting a fire in the courtyard of every household which has been revoked by the society with the change in time.
There is another tradition related to this festival which still exists is that on this day, a gift of every dish is sent to the house of those woman members who were married to other places.
The history of the celebration of this festival in Ladakh is narrated before Buddhism reached Ladakh. At that time, people used to worship Spirits called Lha and in that time the tradition was that whatever dish, one prepares at his home, they had to bring out a quantity of each item on this day in the name of the DeadSpirit.
With the passage of time there are a lot of new things introduced to the list of foods as nowadays people bring Rice, Briyani, Phoulwadi Snacks etc.
According to SyedAbul Hassan, this festival can be a major attraction for the tourist which can attract them to Kargil in this lean season.
There is also a tradition related to this Festival that children visit door to door and collect money from the owners and later in the evening they organize a gathering called Issun and celebrate the day.

Civil War (college rivalry)

The Civil War is a college rivalry between Oregon State University and the University of Oregon. The rivalry is one of the oldest in the nation, dating back to 1894 when the two universities' football teams first met. Although the college football game is the most popular rivalry, the two universities have Civil War games in every sport that both sponsor. There is also an academic rivalry between the schools on occasion, and competitions for community services such as blood drives take place often.

PacificSource Civil War Series

All-time records

Although determining the overall series winner is a fairly recent practice, all-time records for sports between the universities have been kept since play started.

Men's sports

Baseball

The all-time record between the schools stands at 172-159 in favor of Oregon State. The 2005 and 2006 seasons saw a rare unity between the schools in rooting for the Oregon State baseball team during the 2005 and 2006 College World Series. The Beavers went two-and-out (i.e., lost their first two games in the double-elimination event) in 2005, but won the national title in 2006 and 2007. With the recent success of the Oregon State Baseball program, the University of Oregon reinstated their baseball program in 2009, renewing the rivalry.

The game included a heavy cardstock game board, a rules sheet, advertisements for other AH games, and a pamphlet on the historical setting. There were two cardboard trays with sixteen blue plastic pawns, nine red pawns and one six-sided die.

The game board displays the eastern part of the United States from Missouri to Pennsylvania and eastern Texas at the top to northern Florida on the lower half. The map itself is white, with blue rivers, black railroads, brown rough terrain, and various cities and ports.

Six of the blue Union army pawns begin on the board, as well as six of the red Confederate States Army pawns. Reinforcements arrive much faster for the Union, with a total of fifteen pawns eventually in play versus nine for the Confederates.

Crash Course

Plot

Crash Course centers on a group of high schoolers in a driver’s education class; many for the second or third time. The recently divorced teacher, super-passive Larry Pearl, is on thin ice with the football fanatic principal, Principal Paulson, who is being pressured by the district superintendent to raise driver’s education completion rates or lose his coveted football program. With this in mind, Principal Paulson and his assistant, with a secret desire for his job, Abner Frasier, hire an outside driver’s education instructor with a very tough reputation, Edna Savage, aka E.W. Savage, who quickly takes control of the class.

The plot focuses mostly on the students and their interactions with their teachers and each other. In the beginning, Rico is the loner with just a few friends, Chadley is the bookish nerd with few friends who longs to be cool and also longs to be a part of Vanessa’s life who is the young, friendly and attractive girl who had to fake her mother’s signature on her driver’s education permission slip. Kichi is the hip-hop Asian kid who often raps what he has to say and constantly flirts with Maria, the rich foreign girl who thinks that the right-of-way on the roadways always goes to (insert awesomely fake foreign Latino accent) “my father’s limo”. Finally you have stereotypical football meathead J.J., who needs to pass his English exam to keep his eligibility and constantly asks out and gets rejected by Alice, the tomboy whose father owns “Santini & Son” Concrete Company. Alice is portrayed as being the “son” her father wanted.

The season included hold-over episodes from the sixth season, which was cut short due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike. It received a mixed reception from critics, the more-negative reviews criticizing the overuse of cutaways and the more positive praising its story-based episodes. The seventh season contains some of the series' most acclaimed episodes (including "Road to Germany" and "Family Gay") and controversial episodes like "420", which caused the Venezuelan government to ban the show from its networks. It includes 16 episodes, from the first episode ("Love, Blactually") to the season finale, "Peter's Progress". The seventh season was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, making Family Guy the first animated series to be nominated in this category since The Flintstones in 1961.

By the end of the second season, due to low ratings, Fox resorted to canceling Family Guy. However, following a last-minute reprieve, it returned for a third season in 2001. The series was canceled again in 2002; however, high ratings on Adult Swim and high DVD sales renewed Fox's interest in the series. The series returned for a total of 35 new episodes in 2005.

During this season, Peter gets a vestigial twin ("Vestigial Peter"); the Griffins travel to Italy ("Boopa-dee Bappa-dee"); Quagmire and Peter form a folk band ("Into Harmony's Way"); and, as confirmed by series creator Seth MacFarlane, Cleveland moves back to Quahog along with his family, since The Cleveland Show was cancelled ("He's Bla-ack!"). Also, as mentioned by Steve Callaghan in the 2013 Comic-con Panel, a member of the Griffin family was killed off in a special episode. After much speculation, that member was Brian, after being hit by a car in the episode "Life of Brian". This elicited strongly negative reactions from fans of the show, and a petition demanding Brian to be resurrected garnered over 100,000 signatures. His death turned out to be only temporary as, two episodes later, Stewie goes back in time and saves him, effectively changing the future so that he never dies.

There is also a tradition related to this Festival that children visit door to door and collect money from the owners and later in the evening they organize a gathering called Issun and celebrate the day.

Interviewing celebrities isn't always easy, for the interviewer or the stars themselves. It can be tricky to come up with questions that an actor or musician hasn't already answered countless times before, and sometimes out-of-the-box inquiries about movies, television, and music can get everyone involved into trouble, too. Female celebrities often are asked about their outfits and their bodies, and all stars often fall victim to personal questions about their private lives or dark pasts that they've tried to bury or move beyond. Whether it's rude questions about a celebrity's personal life or just poor manners, these stars all made it quite clear when they'd had enough — and they let their interviewers know it in a big way...

Unseen China: The Meo Ethnic Minority (Full Documentary) | TRACKS

The Meo people are an ethnic minority, who mainly used to live in northern and central areas of China. To avoid suppression, they have been forced to move further south, to for example Laos. In times of war, they have been required to take part, but their biggest wish is to live peacefully and stay outside of any conflicts.
The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975. As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions.
The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and PanareIndians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes and the Meo of China.

The New York Times An Ethnic War Is Rekindled in Myanmar-Burma
Myanmar, formerly Burma, is riddled with ethnic civil conflicts, but this is the largest, with the greatest at stake. Right on the Chinese border, Kachin State is rich in jade, gold and timber, and has rivers that are being exploited by Chinese hydropower projects. Part of the state has long been controlled by the Kachin Independence Army and its political wing, which levies taxes on all commerce. The army allowed a reporter and a photographer recently to visit an area rarely seen by Western reporters for one week.

This is a state by state look at how immigration to America has changed over time.
In 1850, the vast majority of newcomers were from Ireland and Germany.
In the1860’s the labor shortages during the Civil War created strong demand for immigrant labor, nearly doubling the foreign born population in a decade.
1870 saw Mexico become the top country of origin in much of the Southwest, while British immigrants preferred the rocky mountain territories.
The 1880 census showed that the Chinese were coming in large numbers. Many took dangerous jobs in the mines or on railroad building crews. For the next century immigrants from Canada crossing the southern border would be the largest group settling in many of the northernmost American states.
In 1882 the Chinese Exclusion Act blocked the arrival of large numbers of Asian immigrants for much of the next century. Unfortunately the overall microdata for the 1890 census were destroyed in a 1921 fire at the Department of Commerce.
So fast-forward to 1900, the turn of the century, when the territorial boundaries of the continental United States were settled. For the first timeNorwegians, Swedes, and Italians were the largest groups coming to South Dakota, Minnesota and Louisiana, respectively.
1910 shows us how quickly things can change, with large numbers of Russians and Italians arriving, the only state where Ireland was the top country of origin was tiny Delaware.
With the American population exceeded 100 million in the 1920 census, there were equal numbers of German, Italian, and Russian born immigrants. Many had fled Europe to escape the horrors of World War I.
By 1930 the industrial revolution was in full swing, and the country was growing rapidly from within, so the percent of foreign born fell. And, for the first time since 1850, Mexico was the dominant country of origin for new arrivals to California.
By 1940, the quotas and other congressional measures passed in the previous decade to restrict immigration sharply cut the foreign born population to below 9%.
1950 saw the effects of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act, as Chinese immigrants were finally welcomed back. Greeks were the largest group arriving in South Carolina.
When Alaska and Hawaii became states in 1959, the year before the 1960 census, Canadians simply crossed the border to immigrate to The Last Frontier, but Filipinos crossed an entire ocean to become The Aloha State’s largest group.
By 1970, the percentage of foreign born reached an all-time low. And with immigrants arriving from a wider range of countries, Italy was the only nation that had sent more than a million people.
In 1980, after Congress began granting more visas to people from the Western Hemisphere, the number of states where Mexico was the top country of origin doubled in a decade, becoming the dominant foreign born population in the entire country.
And in 1990 America began to look like the diverse country we live in today. Mexico was tops in 18 states, Dominicans were the largest group coming to New York, and South Korea and Southeast Asian nations were the leading countries of origin in seven states.
In the year 2000 census the number of Mexican-born immigrants surpassed nine million. It’s also notable that India was the top country of origin in three states.
And the 2010 census reveals exactly why America is quickly becoming so diverse: only five states - all of them bordering Canada - received the most immigrants from a majority white country.

What is ETHNIC GROUP? What does ETHNIC GROUP mean? ETHNIC GROUP meaning - ETHNIC GROUP pronunciation - ETHNIC GROUP definition - ETHNIC GROUP explanation - How to pronounce ETHNIC GROUP?
Source: Wikipedia.org article, adapted under https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ license.
An ethnic group or ethnicity is a category of people who identify with each other based on common language, ancestral, social, cultural, or national experiences. Unlike most other social groups, ethnicity is primarily an inherited status. Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language or dialect, symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art, and physical appearance.
Ethnic groups, derived from the same historical founder population, often continue to speak related languages and share a similar gene pool. By way of language shift, acculturation, adoption and religious conversion, it is possible for some individuals or groups to leave one ethnic group and become part of another (except for ethnic groups emphasizing racial purity as a key membership criterion).
Ethnicity is often used synonymously with ambiguous terms such as nation or people. In English, it can also have the connotation of something exotic (cf. "White ethnic", "ethnic restaurant", etc.).
Depending on which source of group identity is emphasized to define membership, the following types of (often mutually overlapping) groups can be identified:
Ethno-linguistic, emphasizing shared language, dialect or script — example: Basques
Ethno-national, emphasizing a shared polity or sense of national identity — example: Soviet people
Ethno-racial, emphasizing shared physical appearance based on genetic origins — example: Afro-Brazilians
Ethno-regional, emphasizing a distinct local sense of belonging stemming from relative geographic isolation — example: SouthIslandersEthno-religious, emphasizing shared affiliation with a particular religion, denomination or sect — example: Sikhs
In many cases – for instance, the sense of Jewish peoplehood – more than one aspect determines membership.
The largest ethnic groups in modern times comprise hundreds of millions of individuals (Han Chinese being the largest), while the smallest are limited to a few dozen individuals (numerous indigenous peoples worldwide). Larger ethnic groups may be subdivided into smaller sub-groups known variously as tribes or clans, which over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group. Conversely, formerly separate ethnicities can merge to form a pan-ethnicity, and may eventually merge into one single ethnicity. Whether through division or amalgamation, the formation of a separate ethnic identity is referred to as ethnogenesis.

Larger ethnic groups may be subdivided into smaller sub-groups known variously as tribes or clans, which over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group. Conversely, formerly separate ethnicities can merge to form a pan-ethnicity, and may eventually merge into one single ethnicity. Whether through division or amalgamation, the formation of a separate ethnic identity is referred to as ethnogenesis.

KARGIL:
People of Kargil celebrated Mamani the seasonal Ethnic food festival on 22nd and 23rd January at Kargil. The traditional food festival of Purig, is observed to celebrate the end of winter and starting the new season.
During the occasion, people of Kargil prepares traditional dishes like Thukpa, Popot (GrainSoup), Hrtsrap Khur (YeastBread), Markhur, Azoq (Skinn & Kabchey) (Puri), Poli (Pane Cakes of BuckWheat), Curd , Suggoo (Kash or Pachae) etc. With all the dishes they gathers at a specific place (Changrah).
According to the oral history, there was a tradition of a Small Mamani Called (Maqsoomi Mamani) which was celebrated on the same day at the dawn, by lighting a fire in the courtyard of every household which has been revoked by the society with the change in time.
There is another tradition related to this festival which still exists is that on this day, a gift of every dish is sent to the house of those woman members who were married to other places.
The history of the celebration of this festival in Ladakh is narrated before Buddhism reached Ladakh. At that time, people used to worship Spirits called Lha and in that time the tradition was that whatever dish, one prepares at his home, they had to bring out a quantity of each item on this day in the name of the DeadSpirit.
With the passage of time there are a lot of new things introduced to the list of foods as nowadays people bring Rice, Briyani, Phoulwadi Snacks etc.
According to SyedAbul Hassan, this festival can be a major attraction for the tourist which can attract them to Kargil in this lean season.
There is also a tradition related to this Festival that children visit door to door and collect money from the owners and later in the evening they organize a gathering called Issun and celebrate the day.

Interviewing celebrities isn't always easy, for the interviewer or the stars themselves. It can be tricky to come up with questions that an actor or musician hasn't already answered countless times before, and sometimes out-of-the-box inquiries about movies, television, and music can get everyone involved into trouble, too. Female celebrities often are asked about their outfits and their bodies, and all stars often fall victim to personal questions about their private lives or dark pasts that they've tried to bury or move beyond. Whether it's rude questions about a celebrity's personal life or just poor manners, these stars all made it quite clear when they'd had enough — and they let their interviewers know it in a big way...

America's Sources of Immigration (1850-Today)

This is a state by state look at how immigration to America has changed over time.
In 1850, the vast majority of newcomers were from Ireland and Germany.
In the1860’s the labor shortages during the Civil War created strong demand for immigrant labor, nearly doubling the foreign born population in a decade.
1870 saw Mexico become the top country of origin in much of the Southwest, while British immigrants preferred the rocky mountain territories.
The 1880 census showed that the Chinese were coming in large numbers. Many took dangerous jobs in the mines or on railroad building crews. For the next century immigrants from Canada crossing the southern border would be the largest group settling in many of the northernmost American states.
In 1882 the Chinese Exclusion Act blocked the arrival of large numbers of Asian immigrants for much of the next century. Unfortunately the overall microdata for the 1890 census were destroyed in a 1921 fire at the Department of Commerce.
So fast-forward to 1900, the turn of the century, when the territorial boundaries of the continental United States were settled. For the first timeNorwegians, Swedes, and Italians were the largest groups coming to South Dakota, Minnesota and Louisiana, respectively.
1910 shows us how quickly things can change, with large numbers of Russians and Italians arriving, the only state where Ireland was the top country of origin was tiny Delaware.
With the American population exceeded 100 million in the 1920 census, there were equal numbers of German, Italian, and Russian born immigrants. Many had fled Europe to escape the horrors of World War I.
By 1930 the industrial revolution was in full swing, and the country was growing rapidly from within, so the percent of foreign born fell. And, for the first time since 1850, Mexico was the dominant country of origin for new arrivals to California.
By 1940, the quotas and other congressional measures passed in the previous decade to restrict immigration sharply cut the foreign born population to below 9%.
1950 saw the effects of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act, as Chinese immigrants were finally welcomed back. Greeks were the largest group arriving in South Carolina.
When Alaska and Hawaii became states in 1959, the year before the 1960 census, Canadians simply crossed the border to immigrate to The Last Frontier, but Filipinos crossed an entire ocean to become The Aloha State’s largest group.
By 1970, the percentage of foreign born reached an all-time low. And with immigrants arriving from a wider range of countries, Italy was the only nation that had sent more than a million people.
In 1980, after Congress began granting more visas to people from the Western Hemisphere, the number of states where Mexico was the top country of origin doubled in a decade, becoming the dominant foreign born population in the entire country.
And in 1990 America began to look like the diverse country we live in today. Mexico was tops in 18 states, Dominicans were the largest group coming to New York, and South Korea and Southeast Asian nations were the leading countries of origin in seven states.
In the year 2000 census the number of Mexican-born immigrants surpassed nine million. It’s also notable that India was the top country of origin in three states.
And the 2010 census reveals exactly why America is quickly becoming so diverse: only five states - all of them bordering Canada - received the most immigrants from a majority white country.

Unseen China: The Meo Ethnic Minority (Full Documentary) | TRACKS

The Meo people are an ethnic minority, who mainly used to live in northern and central areas of China. To avoid suppression, they have been forced to move further south, to for example Laos. In times of war, they have been required to take part, but their biggest wish is to live peacefully and stay outside of any conflicts.
The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975. As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions.
The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and PanareIndians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes and the Meo of China.
TRACKS publishes unique, unexpected and untold stories from across the world every week.

The New York Times An Ethnic War Is Rekindled in Myanmar-Burma
Myanmar, formerly Burma, is riddled with ethnic civil conflicts, but this is the largest, with the greatest at stake. Right on the Chinese border, Kachin State is rich in jade, gold and timber, and has rivers that are being exploited by Chinese hydropower projects. Part of the state has long been controlled by the Kachin Independence Army and its political wing, which levies taxes on all commerce. The army allowed a reporter and a photographer recently to visit an area rarely seen by Western reporters for one week.

The first time the term was used on the world stage, was during the conflict in the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. The United NationsCommission of Experts was tasked with investigating if violations of international humanitarian law was committed there.
As the world continues to see acts of ethnic cleansing in places like Myanmar, Bangladesh for example, unfold over and over, is it time the international community come together to legally define it and make it an international crime?

An ethnic group or ethnicity is a category of people who identify with each other based on common language, ancestral, social, cultural, or national experiences. Unlike most other social groups, ethnicity is primarily an inherited status. Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language or dialect, symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art, and physical appearance.
Ethnic groups, derived from the same historical founder population, often continue to speak related languages and share a similar gene pool. By way of language shift, acculturation, adoption and religious conversion, it is possible for some individuals or groups to leave one ethnic group and become part of another (except for ethnic groups emphasizing racial purity as a key membership criterion).
Ethnicity is often used synonymously with ambiguous terms such as nation or people. In English, it can also have the connotation of something exotic (cf. "White ethnic", "ethnic restaurant", etc.).
Depending on which source of group identity is emphasized to define membership, the following types of (often mutually overlapping) groups can be identified:
Ethno-linguistic, emphasizing shared language, dialect or script — example: Basques
Ethno-national, emphasizing a shared polity or sense of national identity — example: Soviet people
Ethno-racial, emphasizing shared physical appearance based on genetic origins — example: Afro-Brazilians
Ethno-regional, emphasizing a distinct local sense of belonging stemming from relative geographic isolation — example: SouthIslandersEthno-religious, emphasizing shared affiliation with a particular religion, denomination or sect — example: Sikhs
In many cases – for instance, the sense of Jewish peoplehood – more than one aspect determines membership.
The largest ethnic groups in modern times comprise hundreds of millions of individuals (Han Chinese being the largest), while the smallest are limited to a few dozen individuals (numerous indigenous peoples worldwide). Larger ethnic groups may be subdivided into smaller sub-groups known variously as tribes or clans, which over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group.

Stars Who Fired Back At Their Interviewer On Live TV

Interviewing celebrities isn't always easy, for the interviewer or the stars themselves.

Female celebrities often are asked about their outfits and their bodies, and all stars often fall victim to personal questions about their private lives or dark pasts that they've tried to bury or move beyond.

Civil War (college rivalry)

The Civil War is a college rivalry between Oregon State University and the University of Oregon. The rivalry is one of the oldest in the nation, dating back to 1894 when the two universities' football teams first met. Although the college football game is the most popular rivalry, the two universities have Civil War games in every sport that both sponsor. There is also an academic rivalry between the schools on occasion, and competitions for community services such as blood drives take place often.

PacificSource Civil War Series

All-time records

Although determining the overall series winner is a fairly recent practice, all-time records for sports between the universities have been kept since play started.

Men's sports

Baseball

The all-time record between the schools stands at 172-159 in favor of Oregon State. The 2005 and 2006 seasons saw a rare unity between the schools in rooting for the Oregon State baseball team during the 2005 and 2006 College World Series. The Beavers went two-and-out (i.e., lost their first two games in the double-elimination event) in 2005, but won the national title in 2006 and 2007. With the recent success of the Oregon State Baseball program, the University of Oregon reinstated their baseball program in 2009, renewing the rivalry.
